Request Parameters

Parameter	Description	Mandatory
admin_group	Administrator group identifier which rights will be inherited by the administrator.	no
description	Description	no
group	Identifier of a group an administrator will have access to. This parameter can be repeated any number of times per request to specify multiple groups at a time. If this parameter is specified in a request, a new group administrator account will be created.	no
id	Administrator account ID. Valid values: digits, Latin characters, and symbols ‘_’, ’-‘. If the ID is not specified, it will be generated automatically.	no
last-name	Surname	no

may-create-admin	Authorization to create administrator accounts, administrator groups. Valid values: yes \| no. By default: yes.	no
middle-name	Middle name	no

password	Password. If the password is not specified, it will be generated automatically.	no
readonly	Restriction of administrator account privileges. Valid values: yes \| no. By default: no. If the parameter is set as yes, a new account with read-only privileges will be created (see Appendix A2. Administrator Privileges).	no

If readonly=yes and may-create-admin=yes are both specified, the may-create-admin parameter will be ignored. Thus, an administrator with read-only privileges can neither add nor change account settings of other administrators.

If admin_group and group parameters are both specified, the last specified parameter will be ignored. To specify which group of anti-virus network the administrator rights are applied to, make the request to change administrator parameters: /api/admins/change.ds?id={administrator id}&add-group={anti-virus network group id}
